My great-grandmother passed away over 10 years ago. I adored my Grandma Sue. I still do, and I feel an ache in my heart because I miss her. I wrote a short post about her back in November. My great-grandma… she rarely shared about her childhood. I tried to help her fill out a “grandma” [...]

All Women’s Triathlon – Trek Style
Raise your hand if you’ve done a triathlon? Any length… O.K. Good. Very good! Now, those of you who did not raise your hands (and I am speaking to the ladies), would you consider doing one if you knew it was only for women? I heard that snicker. Yes you….shhhh. Stop. St… Yes. You. Could!!! [...]

Did I Tell You I am Training for a Marathon?
I did? I didn’t? Either way, you know now. It’s in May. You also know I am not fully “right” in the head, but this is not new information for you. Why would I consider doing such a thing? Well, I did not come to this on my own. No. I have a friend who, [...]

Make Me Laugh Monday – Dirty UPS Truck

Old College Pals – My Rachel
Friends. This is my friend Rachel. We met in college back in the ’91. Probably some of you weren’t even born then *wrinkles forming*… I digress. Rachel and I haven’t seen each other in… Oh… We have no idea how long it has been… Say, 6 to 8 years, give or take :) Too. Darn. [...]

An Xbox Cake
I will start this post with honesty. I did NOT make an Xbox cake. Sure… I could have made it… but I didn’t. My sister-in-law made it for my nephew’s birthday last week. I am pretty sure, though, that somehow that cake was inspired by me. Pretty sure. One thing I am certain of, however [...]

Make Me Laugh Monday – Unrealistically Large Heads
Don’t you forget, my friends: “All head sizes are beautiful!” and “Beauty comes in all head sizes.” Also, just say “NO!!!” *hands waving above head as you run for your life* to Bratz dolls. ***I want to give a shout-out to my friend Jen C. on the East Coast, yo… for bringing this [...]
